All God's Critters    (1983)

All God's creatures got a place in the choir
Some sing low and some sing higher
Some sing out loud on a telephone wire
Some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they've got now

All God's creatures got a place in the choir
Some sing low and some sing higher
Some sing out loud on a telephone wire
Some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they've got now

Listen to the top where the little bird sings
On the melodies and the high notes ringing
And the hoot owl cries over everything
And the blackbird disagrees

Singing in the night time, singing in the day
When the little duck quacks, and he's on his way
And the otter hasn't got much to say
And the porcupine talks to himself

All God's creatures got a place in the choir
Some sing low and some sing higher
Some sing out loud on a telephone wire
Some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they've got now

The dogs and the cats they take up the middle
While the honeybee hums and the cricket fiddles
The donkey brays and the pony neighs
And the old gray badger sighs...

Listen to the bass, it's the one on the bottom
Where the bullfrog croaks and the hippopotamus
Moans and groans with a big t'do
And the old cow just goes moo

All God's creatures got a place in the choir
Some sing low and some sing higher
Some sing out loud on a telephone wire
Some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they've got now

It's a simple song, a little song everywhere
By the ox and the fox and the grizzly bear
The dopey alligator and the hawk above
The sly old weasel and the turtle dove

All God's creatures got a place in the choir
Some sing low and some sing higher
Some sing out loud on a telephone wire
Some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they've got now

All God's creatures got a place in the choir
Some sing low and some sing higher
Some sing out loud on a telephone wire
Some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they've got now

All God's creatures got a place in the choir
Some sing low and some sing higher
Some sing out loud on a telephone wire
Some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything they've got now

All God's creatures got a place in the choir
